O Young and Fearless Prophet
Author: S. Ralph Harlow, 1885-1972 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #276 (1993) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Jewish and Christian Teachings The Christian Spirit Lyrics: 1 O young and fearless Prophet
of ancient Galilee:
your life is still a summons
to serve humanity,
to make our thoughts and actions
less prone to please the crowd,
to stand with humble courage
for truth with hearts unbowed.
2 O help us stand unswerving
against war's bloody way,
where hate and lust and falsehood
hold back your holy sway;
forbid false love of country,
that turns us from your call
who lifts above the nation
the neighborhood of all.
3 Create in us the splendor
that dawns when hearts are kind,
that knows not race nor station
as bound'ries of the mind;
that learns to value beauty,
in heart, or mind, or soul,
and longs to see God's children
as sacred, perfect, whole.
4 Stir up in us a protest
against unneeded wealth;
for some go starved and hungry
who plead for work and health.
Once more give us your challenge
above our noisy day,
and come to lead us forward
along your holy way.

In the Lonely Midnight
Author: Theodore Chickering Williams, 1855-1915 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #242 (1993) Meter: 6.5.5.6.5 D Topics: Jewish and Christian Teachings Christmas Lyrics: 1 In the lonely midnight
on the wintry hill,
shepherds heard the angels
singing, "Peace, good will."
Listen, O ye weary,
to the angels’ song,
unto to you the tidings
of great joy belong.
2 Though in David’s city
angels sing no more,
love makes angel music
on earth’s darkest shore.
Though no heavenly glory
meet your wondering eyes,
love can make your dwelling
bright as paradise.
3 Though the child of Mary,
heralded on high,
in his manger cradle
may no longer lie,
love will reign forever,
though the proud world scorn;
if you truly seek peace,
Christ for you is born. Languages: English Tune Title: ADORO TE DEVOTE

Whence, O shepherd maiden, whence came you?
I come from the manger, walking on my way,
nothing ever stranger seen within my day.
2 What saw you there, maiden, what saw you?
What saw you there, maiden, what saw you?
I saw lying cradled there a tiny child,
in the new straw huddled, softly it was piled.
3 Nothing more then, maiden, nothing more?
Nothing more then, maiden, nothing more?
Mary, holy mother, nursing babe at breast,
Joseph, holy father, with the cold oppressed. Languages: English Tune Title: D'OÙ VIENS TU, BERGÈRE

A Mighty Fortress
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546; Frederick Henry Hedge, 1805-1890 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #200 (1993) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Jewish and Christian Teachings Worship First Line: A mighty fortress is our God Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper sure amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
with craft and power great;
and, armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not an equal.
2 God's word above all earthly powers,
no thanks to them, abideth;
the spirit and the gifts are ours
through God who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go,
this mortal life also;
the body they may kill,
God's truth abideth still;
whose kingdom is forever. Languages: English Tune Title: EIN' FESTE BURG
